Item Description

Beautiful light cherry-red, gemmy and lustrous rhodochrosite rhombs are aesthetically clustered on the sulfide and quartz matrix on this showy combination from the famed Sweet Home Mine. The rhodos have pristine, contacted and cleaved faces. The surrounding very sharp and LARGE for the locale tetrahedrite crystals have a beautiful light iridescent bornite coating, adding pizzazz. This remains an excellent highly representative combination example with very large and sharp tetrahedrites.
